Standardized post-operative rehabilitation protocols specific to PMMR repair have not been established or well understood in the scientific literature. Thus, clinicians have little guidance for managing post-operative care. Upon diagnosis of a root tear, appropriate surgical treatment, with appreciation for native anatomy and function of the meniscus root, is a critical first step for recovery. Post-operative rehabilitation protocols should account for biomechanical considerations unique to root tears, because they can destabilize the entire meniscus and compromise its native function. Rehabilitation specialists can apply known science regarding the influence of joint motion, muscle strengthening activities, gait, squatting, and progressive loading activities on the healing meniscus to guide post-operative recovery. This knowledge, complemented with existing foundational principles for sound post-operative rehabilitation, can optimize recovery for patients following PMMR repair.

A secondary purpose was to determine the effects of swing style and KB mass on the forces applied to the total body center of mass and KB. It was hypothesized that velocity, power, and work would be greater for the OHS compared to the SHS, as well as for the heavier compared to the lighter KB's.</p><p><strong>Study design: </strong>Crossover study design.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Fifteen physically active females performed 15 swings under four conditions, SHS/12kg, SHS/16kg, OHS/12kg, and OHS/16kg, while three-dimensional dominant limb foot, shank, thigh, pelvis, and KB kinematic and ground reaction force (GRF) data were collected.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>KB distance (95%CIDiff: 17.5-25.1 %BH), time (95%CIDiff: 0.067-0.023 s), and peak velocity (95%CIDiff: 0.56-0.74 m‧s-1) were significantly greater during the OHS (p<0.05). During OHS, significantly greater hip joint peak power (95%CIDiff: 1.6-4.1 W‧kg-1), work (95%CIDiff: 0.104-0.527), peak velocity (95%CIDiff: 7.6-40.5 °‧s-1) occurred compared to SHS, although the time and hip angular position of peak velocity and peak power were not statistically different between styles.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>These results may influence choices of KB progressions, suggesting that one may first consider changes in KB mass prior to changing from the SHS style to the OHS style.</p><p><strong>Level of evidence: </strong>Level 3.</p>","PeriodicalId":47892,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Sports Physical Therapy","volume":"20 1","pages":"30-39"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11698002/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142933064","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
